Sul. • fice it therefore to say, that my own experience • has justified the position, that those rights, are at taileilde, an+ that in some instances, where the want of unanimity in tIA. general body of claim. ' ants militated against their general interests., dividual activity promoted 'those interests, bind large sums of money were attained and applied to the general distribution amongst the Creditors. Of these instances 1 am in possession of proof, and incline to believe, that there are numerous • cases wherein careless and cidpable indifference on the part of the Creditors have prevented simi lar attainment: As to • the fraudulent conduct with which Debtors have been too profusely charged, I am confident in the assertion, that the provisional en. acttnents are as strong and as general as human foresight could make them, and are will directed to the punishment or exemption of fraud. Bite when it is considered with what ready facility Cr edit has been given heretofore without reference to the competency of the Debtor, and that the pro.. fit4'-of the trader are in the nature of an insurance, with the public, it is not to he wondered that ha sometimes loses by the risk which deliberation might induce him to avoid. Fraud and disho nesty are not attributable to one side of the ac count only—for all Debtors are not unfortunate or dishonest, any more than al creditors in dustrious and honest ; and whilst we find the cre dulity of dupes as inexhitestible as the invention Of knaves, and whilst the currency of false pre tences, pretexts, and devices, is encpuraged . by too ready confidence, Legislative proviamos alone will be unavailing.

" This is really one of the most practically useful books of any which we have seen on the subject. The Lady who has written it has not studied how to form expensive articles for luxurious tables, but to comibine elegance with economy. She has given her directions in a plain sensible manner, that every body can understand ; and these are noteonfined mere ly to cooke i ry, but are extended to a variety of objects in use in families; by which means the' utility of the book is very much increased indeed." .

JANIES'S ANALEPTIC PILLS, FROM their tendency to promoteithe nat.iral Secretions, are the best Remedy for Colds, itheutnia fis,,,Q, slight Fevers, and all those Disorders which arise from obstructed perspiration, so common in a changeable climate. They are equally excellent for 1-lead-achs, and Indigestion ; and for (iouty, Bilious, or other Complaints of the Stomach and Bowels, tot, often the' consequence of Free Living. As a general Family Medicine they have no equal; and are parti cularly, convenient foe persons — travelling, being mild in their operation, and not requiring any confinement. The Analeptic Pills are prepared by Messrs. Newbery from the only Recipe existing under Dr. James's Hand, .and are sold by them at the Original Warehouse for Dr. James's Pow der, No. 45, in St. Paul's Church-yard, London, and 29, Dame-street, Dublin ; also by their Agents, Mr. Sanger, 150, Oxford-street, and Messrs.

I disclaim all personal illwill towards indivi duals, fot• I feel none, and if the Sergeant ascribes to me motives of a private nature, be is in error ; but I repeat the conviction which has been afford ed by experience, that the indiscriminate admis sion of Agents to practise in a Court of Record, without proper initiation and efficient responsi bility, must produce inconveniences to the public. If the evils detailed in your several Papers should induce the Legislature to call for evidence in sty port of what has been elledged, the , result will spew whether or not then .' is a necessity - f' adaptation of preventive means against the recur rence of abuses which practical remedies cannot reach, and which, as Scrutator observes, have a tendency to bring the administration of the Law into disrepute.—" Melior est Justitia yea prceve niens, severe paniens." The principle anti operation of the Act having been the chief objects of consideration with your several Correspondents, the reply to their separate arguments will be comprized in general terms, as to the mode of Administration, the Machinery, and the Imperfections. The torMation of a Court for the express pur pose of effectuating the Legislative enactments, was the proposition of the learned framer of the Bill, whose avowed object was to vest au autho rity where the Law might be rendered most cer tain, least expensive, and most exempt from liti, gation ; and under a conviction that the princi ple of the measure would be best executed by a distinct Court, wherein a person of abilities should preside and administer the Law systemati cally, without bringing it into discredit. Other ideas were entertained by very distinguished Sena tors in the Upper House, as to the mode of exe cuting this Act ; and they were according sug gested, viz. One Noble Lord proposed, that all the Cases should be heard at Quarter Sessions, with a right of Appeal to the superior Courts. Another proposed, that Delegates from each of the superior Courts should be appiiilitell t►l bear such Cas , :s. And a third recommended, that Commissioners, as in the nature'ot Commissioners of liaokrupt, should decide. _ Thus it appears, that the MACHINERY of the Bill was not unattended to, and. how tar it- has been found properly adapted experience must de cide. But the formation of a Court having been ultimately assented to, it is proper to observe, that the Ministers of the Crown, in their appoint ment of a Commissioner, expressly directed their attention to the choice of a fit person, under the impression that he should be a man of knowledge, a man of temper, and of firmness,' with industry, and that high character for integrity, which might induce the public to trust in the justice of his decisions, and in the propriety of that system which his wisdom, his knowledge, and his temper should establish, and which his successors might take as their guide. This I know to have been the object of his Majesty's Ministers, and in their choice I feel a conviction that they have not erred ; tor, without undue praise, it may he asserted, that the present Learned Commissioner, and his late Predecessor have justified the choice as far as public expectation could rely on individual ta lent atol decision. Whether the purposes of the Act have been fully realized in this distinct Tri bunal is not for me to decide, but the result - of five years' experience will supply materials for the basis of Legislative decision. Whatever may be the result of future delibera tions in the great Council of this Empire, as, to the continuance of the present measure, or the mode of executing any other similar to it in principle, 1 would humbly suggest that in cases of extreme doubt or difficulty, where fraud and misconduct are imputed, or a gross injustice is alleged, refer ence might properly be bad to A JuitY for deci sion ; and in this suggestion,l am supported by a similar recommendation in " the Committee of the House of Lords appointed to enquire into the practice of imprisonment for civil debt, and the consequences thereof," by whose REPORT it is suggested, " that a Jury might be impannelled under the order of time Court obtained by the ap plication of either creditor or debtor, - to examine the case," alleging, " that it does not appear why such an inquest as determines in all questions of Tort should not be competent to decide in cases of Debt ;" and, "according to the. opinion of the Jury, the Debtor might either be remanded for further investigation of his affairs, or he might be discharged upon the cession of his property." p. 14. lam much inclined to fear that in the ab sence of a provision conformable to this recom mendation, it. may sometimes occur, as it here tofore certainly has, that " the detention of the Debtor in prison has exceeded a term • much more than sufficient to expiate the grossest profligacy. which he could have committed in the contrac tion of the debt; especially where bounds to the imputed guilt are necessarily placed by the exist ence of statutes to punish whatsoever could come specifically under the description of fraud." p. 10. Scrutator has contended, with some force, that the Act hits not sufficieutly provided for the protection of Creditors, and he has been very un 'Paring in his general abuse of Debtors. It would W.

FOX was, I think, a man of great talents and of great virtues, whose talents and virtues were bosh better calculated for a leader of Parlia mentary Opposition, t,l►an for a Prime Minister of England ; for his talents were rather of the de structive than of the constructive kind, and his virtues were more those of an easy and gentle heart than of a firm unshaken will. Providence fixed him, during the far greater part of his life, where he was best fitted to be, and was equally .vise in determining the brighter fortune of his rival.. That fortune,. however bright, was, never theless, to judge as men commonly do, no very enviable boon. "•The life of PITT was spent ail in labour,. much of it in sorrow; but England and Europe may thank their" God, his great spirit was formed for its destiny, and never sunk into despondence. Year after year rolled over his head, and saw his hairs turning grey from care, not for himself, but - for his country ; but every succeeding year left this Atlas of the World as proudly inflexible bt• neath his gigantic burthen as before. Rarely, very rarely, has it happened that one man 101 had it in his power to be so splendidly, so eternally, the benefactor of his species. So long as England preserves within her " guarded shore" the palla dium of all her heroes—the sacred pledge of free dom—his name will be the pride and glory of the soil that gave him..birth. Nay, even should, at .some distant day, the liberty of that favoured land expire, in the memory of strangers he shall abun dantly have his reward; for that holy treasure which he preserved to England might, but for the high resolution of this Patriot Martyr, have been lost for ever, not to her only, but to the world. " He was a Man, take him for all in all, We shall not look upon his like again !" INTERNAL PROSPERITY OF THE HIGHLAND!.--- It is calculated that the Black Cattle, Wool, Sheep, and Herrings, sold and sent from the Highland district of Scotland, north of the Spey, to the other quarters of the kingdom, within the last six months, amount in value to at least 500,0001. ; a greater sum than was perhaps ever before received in one year, for the whole pro duce of this district. We are happy in being able to state, that these great branches of our provin cial exports have been at no period in more nourishing circ►tmstances than at present. And it gives us touch pleasure also to mention that the only extensive manufactories in this quarter, viz. those of hemp bagging, begin to participate like wise in the rapidly returning prosperity of the country.—(lnuerness Courier.)
